Answer: 23m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass of soccer ball = 0.450kg

kinetic energy = 119 J

velocity of the soccer ball = ?

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object. It is measured in joules, and depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

119J = 1/2 x 0.450kg x v^2

119J = 0.225kg x v^2

v^2 = 119J / 0.225kg

v^2 = 528.9

To get the value of velocity, find the square root of v

v = √528.9

v = 22.997m/s (Round result to 23)

Thus, the velocity of the soccer ball is 23m/s

An object with little mass won't require a lot of force to move.

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Heavier objects (objects with more mass) are more difficult to move and stop. Heavier objects (greater mass) resist change more than lighter objects. Example: Pushing a bicycle or a Cadillac, or stopping them once moving. The more massive the object (more inertia) the harder it is to start or stop.

Describe a technology used in space exploration.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

High speed optical communication technology

To be able to communicate from the space to the earth and from earth to space is one of the most essential features required during space exploration.

Explanation:

Space exploration involves going into the space, beyond the earth's atmosphere. Landing on other planets and studying their details, going into deeper space beyond the planets to discover new cosmic events or structures is all a part of space exploration.

The key to analyse the studies and observations is being able to communicate the data collected, photos taken etc to the launch centers or space centers on earth. The space centers on earth should also be able to communicate with the persons or the satellites in space.

This is made possible using the optical communication technology which involves the use of optical fibers, lasers etc, since high speeds are more efficient during communication

You can use any coordinate system you like in order to solve a projectile motion problem. To demonstrate the truth of this state

posledela

Answer:

a) y₂ = 49.1 m , t = 1.02 s , b) y = 49.1 m , t= 1.02 s

Explanation:

a) We will solve this problem with the missile launch kinematic equations, to find the maximum height, at this point the vertical speed is zero

$v_{y}$ ² = $v_{oy}$ ² - 2 g (y –yo)

The origin of the coordinate system is on the floor and the ball is thrown from a height

y-yo = $v_{oy}² /2 g
 y- 0 = 10.0²/2 9.8
 y - 0 = 5.10 m
 
The height from the ground is the height that rises from the reference system plus the depth of the ground from the reference system
 y₂ = 5.1 + 44
 y₂ = 49.1 m
Let's use the other equation to find the time
 [tex]v_{y}$ = $v_{oy}$ - g t

t = $v_{oy}$ / g

t = 10 / 9.8

t = 1.02 s

b) the maximum height

y- 44.0 = $v_{y}$ ² / 2 g

y - 44.0 = 5.1

y = 5.1 +44.0

y = 49.1 m

The time is the same because it does not depend on the initial height

t = 1.02 s

A police car with its 300-Hz siren is moving toward a warehouse at 30 m/s, intending to crash through the door. The sound bounce

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: The frequency heard will be f = 275.675Hz

Explanation: When an object emitting sound is moving, it occurs a phenomenon called Doppler shift or Doppler effect. What happens is that the sound gets higher when the moving object comes closer the observer and becomes lower after it passes, This change is due to the quantity of waves that passes through an area in an unit of time.

The formula to calculate the Doppler effect is as follows

f = ( $\frac{c}{c+Vs}$ ) · f₀

f is the observed frequency;

c is the speed of sound;

Vs is velocity of the source;

f₀ is the emitted frequency of source;

Substituting and calculating,

f = $\frac{340}{340+30}$ · 300

f = 275.675 Hz

Thus, the frequency heard by the police officer is 275.675Hz.
